Photographer's Note

A young girl seems to be lost in her own world inside the corridors of Ibrahim Roza, one of the most beautiful Islamic structures in India. This beautiful tomb with artistically laid out corridors and interconnecting buildings with richly decorated walls and perforated stone windows, is said to have inspired the Taj Mahal in Agra. While capturing the stone filigree and other sculpturally decorative works, what caught my attention was the look in the girl’s eyes, she seemed oblivious of my presence. I guess she was too young to find anything interesting while her parents were engrossed in the architectural beauty.

Hi Sabyasachi,
How nice of this little girl to come with her own light reflector; the bright shirt reflects on her face making the skin tones golden. ...And how smart of you to recognize this golden opportunity. I like the way you mix portraits, landscapes and architechture in your gallery; it gives great depth to the face of India you present to us.
Regards, Pat

All what you were able to do here with simple elements and light is absolutely beautiful. yes her eyes and expression are very intersting, but the stones together with this yellow shirt and her skin are playing in such an intersting way with light that this is what is capting all my attention here. Superd work again Sabyaschi! Thanks.

beautiful little girl, she looks so sad though, would rather be outdoors playing then being in a museum I guess! Love the photo, the colors she is wearing stand out so brightly against the rest of the photo and the frame. TFS
Donna :o)

I se you are almost at 10,000 points! Man, its been quick for you hasnt it? No wonder, you keep coming up with intense work like this. The darks and colors are so "heavy" Id be afraid to pick up the print;)

Sabyasachi, I am totally blown away by this portrait and the majority of the pictures you have posted. The use of shadow is this shot is perfect. the framing is spot on and the way you captured the soul of the young girl is amazing. You have an amazing eye for a great shot and obviously a quick finger becasue in no way does the girl look posed. She is completly natural. This pictures are really an inspiration to all of us beginners to get out there and start clicking. Thank you so much for sharing

Greetings Sabyasachi.
What moods you create, or better yet, what ability to capture great moods. Such a distracted downcast mood her eyes convey. It always interests me to think what happens in a childs mind during such times as this. Most probably it is the same thing that adults contemplate when confronted with boredom, sadness or hurt.

The yellow of her outfit stands as a great contrast against the beautiful black background. Her pure skin shines with the superb lighting.

You are the portrait master in TE! This is a very sensitive aproach of the child, although it's rather sad to see such a young kid drowned in its thoughts. Your colours are always magnificent. A dreamy result. Congratulations!

Hi Sabyasachi,
This is a perfect photo of the little girl so deep in thought. The colour of her clothes against the woodwork looks truely superb too. Thank you for sharing and greetings from Australia.
Cheers,
Debbie

My friend, Sabyasachi!
You have shamelessly used the unusual beauty of this little girl to create a photo of yours.
Shall I condemn you for it?
Not a bit.
Because...You see...The pretty face is only responsible partly for this charming portrait.
Giving a credit to the sperm of a father and an egg of the mother...
The whole rest of it is...YOU!.
Sabyasachi guy, who really knows 'how to'!
Lovable and enjoyable.
Great mastery.

Hi Sabyasachi,
pretty image, you have well caught to this girl framed between stones and standing out with its pretty yellow dress on background really dark.
That lost glance, that it seems a little sad, she is stirring.
I like this photo, my friend, he is tender and adorable.
Greetings from Barcelona,

Hi Sabyasachi,
You have a way of getting so close to people; your POV is seemingly already part of their territory and not of the photographer's. I love the way you creep up on this little girl, but "creep up" doesn't say it right because I mean it in a positive way.
Great job, and great how you showcase the yellow color of the girl's shirt,
Raluca

Hello Sabyasachi,
Great portriat of this little girl.
I like the introspective expression on her face.
The window make a nice frame to the girl and the vibrant yellow tones of her shirt really contrasts with the dark background.

Teresa

Hello Sabyasachi,
Decisive moment indeed, not easy to get such a serene expression and to master the fact that light colors may explode when taken against a black background. A picture which is both technically and emotionally perfect.

You have caught with your camera a little while very beautiful, the image has contrast of great force, and you have created a perfect composition, an intriguing scene, about which this girl will be thought?

absolutely exquisite, the thought and atmosphere you have captured are expressed perfectly in this little girls expression and title. the yello really sets of the dark surroundings and her skin and hair colour, thanks for sharing this wonderful photo

Hello Sabyasachi!
What a nice portrait! The cute little girl looks like a little bit sad, thinking far far away. I like the lights and the texture of the frame around her and the nice contrast to the yellow. Well done!
Regards,
